and it cometh to pass, when they have gone round the days of the banquet, that Job doth send and sanctify them, and hath risen early in the morning, and caused to ascend burnt-offerings -- the number of them all -- for Job said, 'Perhaps my sons have sinned, yet blessed God in their heart.' Thus doth Job all the days.

Hast not Thou made a hedge for him, and for his house, and for all that he hath -- round about?

Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped,

And when they lifted up their eyes afar off, and knew him not, they lifted up their voice, and wept; and they rent every one his mantle, and sprinkled dust upon their heads toward heaven.

His roots are twisted round the stones, forcing their way in between them.

Thine hands have made me and fashioned me together round about; yet thou dost destroy me.

And you will be safe because there is hope; after looking round, you will take your rest in quiet;

And thou wilt set my feet in the stocks, and thou wilt watch all my paths; thou wilt dig round the roots of my feet

Sorrow and carefulness make him afraid, and compass him round about, like as it where a king with his host ready to the battle.

He rent in his anger, and he will lie in wait for me, gnashing upon me with his teeth; mine enemy will sharpen his eyes against me.

I was some time in wealth, but suddenly hath he brought me to naught. He hath taken me by the neck, he hath rent me, and set me, as it were a mark for him to shoot at.

His archers compass me round about, he cleaveth my reins asunder, and doth not spare; he poureth out my gall upon the ground.

Truly, those who make sport of me are round about me, and my eyes become dark because of their bitter laughing.

He rent his soul in his anger: shall the earth be forsaken for thee? and shall the rock be removed from its place?

Round about terrified him have terrors, And they have scattered him -- at his feet.

Know now, that God turned me upside down, And His net against me hath set round,

He breaketh me down round about, and I go, And removeth like a tree my hope.

His troops come together, and raise up their way against me, and encamp round about my tabernacle.

Turn round to me, and be astonished, and lay hand on mouth!

Therefore snares are round about thee, and sudden fear troubleth thee;

He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.

When the Almighty was yet with me, my young men round about me;

Then I said, I will come to my end with my children round me, my days will be as the sand in number;

They have made waste my roads, with a view to my destruction; his bowmen come round about me;

And it is turned round about by his counsels: that they may do whatsoever he commandeth them upon the face of the world in the earth.

When I made the cloud its robe, and put thick clouds as bands round it,

He is covered by the branches of the trees; the grasses of the stream are round him.

Will you put a cord into his nose, or take him away with a cord round his tongue?

Who can open the doors of his face? his teeth are terrible round about.
